Re: Reserved: Arthur || INCEPTION (movie) 2/3
Arthur is Cobb’s friend, and that’s why he agrees with him and accepts Saito’s mission, even if he insists that it can’t be done and it takes too much risk. Where Cobb is the man with the big ideas, Arthur is the person that works to make them possible. He minimizes the risk; he researches all the important information, works on the details and makes sure nothing unexpected will happen and bite them in the ass. He’s aware of Mal’s presence in Cobb’s mind, and while he doesn’t know how much the shadow of his wife is affecting Cobb, he is still there risking his life so Cobb can get his kids back.
He is professional and organized, and most of all, he loves his job. While he wants things to be in order, the world he creates in his dreams are not always like that. His constructions are post-industrial modernist, with straight lines and sober decorations, but at the same time he likes to add impossible paradoxes like the Penrose stairs or macabre art.
Arthus’s personality is a perfect mix of the Architect and the Protector types from the Keirsey Temperament Sorter. His emotions aren’t easy to read, but he is not afraid of vocalize them when it’s needed. He often responds in a condescending tone (but never openly disrespectful) when he’s addressing someone he doesn’t like or who is getting on his nerves. This trait is more noticeable when Eames is around, but both seems to tone down their banter when it’s time for some serious work. At the same time, he doesn’t mind acting like a guinea pig for them (he is pushed around a lot while Yusuf tests the new sedative), or making sure no one gets hurt or is left behind.
He’s used to thinking and reacting quickly, and he prefers to know everyone’s roles and aids to avoid unexpected problems; however, he is not perfect and he misses information, too (such as Fischer’s mind being military trained to stop possible invasions).
Other:
His totem is a weighted red dice. He knows judo and self defense, he’s good with explosives and weapons (close range way more than farther range), and he can also kick ass even in zero-gravity.
Re: Reserved: Arthur || INCEPTION (movie) 3/3
Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inception_%28film%29#Story
First Person (entry type):
[Video post.]
[The camera turns on and you see a man in his mid to late twenties. His hair is slicked back and he wears styled clothes. There’s a stoic expression on his face as he stares at the computer for some long seconds, not realizing it's recording. A small frown appears on his forehead and he finally speaks, murmuring to himself.]
How I am supposed to do my work if Eames keeps using my computer to access weird places? There's still too much to do if we want to be ready when the time comes. Maurice won't last long.
[He pinches the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger. Then he sighs and closes his eyes for a second.]
At least it's not German porn this time. I swear to god, if he hacks my computer again, I'm going to burn all his clothes, no matter what Dom says. They're abominable clothes anyway.
Third Person:
They never shared a room anymore. They used to do it, some time ago, when they first started this new and not-so-legal job. He and Dom were traveling most of the time, sleeping in hotels or apartments, safe places for both of them, but mostly for the Extractor. They stopped shortly after Dom stopped dreaming, not because it annoyed Arthur, but because he did not want to remind the man of another of the things he had lost.
Arthur was a good observer; he always paid attention. Always. And at night, the few times he caught Dom sleeping, all that he saw was a shadow of the man he used to be when Mal was alive. Dom lying in a bed, or a chair, not moving at all. Like a broken doll that got it's strings cut. It made his chest hurt.
Arthur could tell he was not dreaming because there was no movement of his eyes under the eyelids, and thus, he didn't reach the REM Phase. He knew, but he never asked Dom. It was not necessary. And that's why after a sleepless night that he spent looking after Dom while he rested dreamless, Arthur announced to him that he was getting another room. Dom didn't complain, but he saw the relief in his eyes when they moved to their respective rooms the next night.
